Then deploy your Saber Turret (behind cover, of course) to keep the Psychos off your back while you destroy Big Bertha. After that you can focus on Boom himself.Īxton: Use the above strategy of hiding behind the fin, but before you start attacking the turret, quickly kill Bewm. Once Boom is ejected, Phaselock him and focus on Bewm to take him out quickly. Maya: Immediately Phaselock Bertha to damage it heavily, then stay mobile and needle the turret with small arms fire. Once he’s out, unload on Bewm to kill him quickly, then Gunzerk on Boom and the Psychos that appear. Salvador: Stay mobile and attack the turret without activating Gunzerker mode. While it’s possible to do it by constantly remaining on the move, another tactic is to take cover behind the red and white metal fin sticking out of the snow, then stepping out to take some potshots at the cannon in the five-second window its firing rate provides. Make Boom go Boom: This is a challenge which involves beating the Boom brothers without taking a single hit from Big Bertha. Once dismounted, Boom and his brother aren’t too difficult to deal with as long as you don’t get too close to their shotgun blasts. ![]() Keep shooting at the cannon and when it gets to about a quarter of its total health Boom will be flushed out and you’ll be able to advance to stage two of the fight. ![]() If you decide to take out Big Bertha first keep in mind that the cannon can do huge amounts of damage, but you can mitigate this by circling around it as the gun turns very slowly. The psychos are a double-edged sword, as although they can be annoying distractions when you’re fighting Boom, killing one of them can give you a second wind if while downed. It’s up to you whether you want to take out Big Bertha or Bewm first, but keep in mind that his death causes an endless stream of psychos to enter the fray. Bewm is running around the cannon with a shotgun and a rocket pack. You get a quest to ‘Escort Claptrap’ and before long you’ll run into the duo.īoom will be sitting in a huge cannon called Big Bertha that will fire at you in two-round bursts every five seconds. You’ll come across Boom (and his brother Bewm) soon after Sir Hammerlock has repaired Claptrap’s eye. Periodically, he’ll jump onto the icy ledge above the container to try and lure you out, but just wait him out when he does so. His larger projectiles can’t hit you in there either. He can’t reach you in there, but he will throw small rocks at you. He also charges at you in an attempt to smash you to tiny bits with his powerful arms, as well as executing a jump attack at you that you really need to avoid.Ī sort of exploit-ey tactic you can use is hopping back inside the cargo container when the fight begins. Secondly, When Knuckle Dragger comes back to the fight, he’s going to start throwing bigger stuff at you, including a full-size car. You might want to keep one or two of these alive in case you need an emergency second wind. Firstly, he’s going to jump away out of range and summon some monglets to attack you. Once he’s at half HP, he’ll begin using some other attacks you need to watch out for. You’ll drop him to half his health in no time. In the beginning of the fight, the monkey will stick to throwing rocks and bits of ice at you, so try circling around him while shooting at his head (this is one of the major weaknesses of the Bullymong enemy type). ![]() You’ll face Knuckle Dragger past the slanted cargo box that Claptrap opens for you. Right after Claptrap brings you to his hideout, he’ll have his one solitary eye stolen by the beast, and it’ll be your job to bring it back. Knuckle Dragger is the first boss you fight, and he comes at you right off the bat.
